Obsidian is not FOSS though, right?
Comment on It's official: Evernote will restrict free users to 50 notes | TechCrunch
ocassionallyaduck@lemmy.world 10 months agoI’ve heard Joplin is good. Also Obsidian is apparently amazing with plug-ins. I’m leaning towards Obsidian myself. But between Google and MS, I figured Keep and Evernote would’ve been impossible to challenge.

Nope, but it keeps your data in Markdown format so you wouldn’t lose anything if it disappeared.

+1 for Obsidian, I wrangled long with the fact it is not open source, but since it handles file with markdown formatting and saves them openly accessible, I gave it a try anyway. Really like it but will definitely never be open to pay a subscription for it. One time payment, absolutely!

Another +1 for Obsidian. Will never go back. For anyone running into Notion, it doesn’t work offline (that I last checked.) bit me in the ass one time. Obsidian is all markdown locally available.

And Notion is so slow my god, Crazy how everything feels instant with Obsidian

I self host a lot of shit, but after almost a year of using Obsidian I finally paid for their sync feature for one reason: iCloud sync to iOS is painfully slow.
I was sometimes waiting 30-45 seconds to jot down a note just waiting on the app to open with iCloud sync as my backend. Now, with Obsidian sync, the app is ready-to-go in seconds.
Now if you’re only going to be using on desktop, I would definitely consider a git-repository based sync, but if you’re gonna use mobile I’d recommend you at least consider Obsidian Sync

I already have Syncthing up and running so its not an issue for me right now and I don’t need to share notes.
